Time 1h20m

Yield 50

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound bacon, diced
3 onions, diced
1 bunch celery, diced
3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 quarts water, divided
1 gallon heavy whipping cream
1 cup butter
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
18 potatoes, peeled and diced
2 (16 ounce) packages frozen corn
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 pinches red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large heavy-bottom pot and cook over medium-high heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Add onions and celery to bacon and stir until coated in bacon grease; add garlic.
  • Pour 1 quart water over onion mixture and cover pot; steam vegetables until partially tender, about 5 minutes. Add remaining 1 quart water and cream; reduce heat to medium.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir flour into melted butter and cook until mixture forms a paste. Add potatoes to flour-butter paste and cook until paste is lightly browned and the raw flavor of flour is gone, about 5 minutes. Slowly stir potato mixture into vegetable and cream mixture and cook until soup is smooth, potatoes are tender, and temperature is 170 degrees F (75 degrees C) to 180 degrees F (80 degrees C), 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Cook and stir corn and red bell pepper together in a cast iron skillet over medium heat until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Mix corn mixture into soup and season with red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.

The chowder was good, but it didn't wow me. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I found the chowder to be a bit bland. I would add more salt and pepper next time.

This chowder is a bit too thick for my taste. I would add more broth or water next time.

I'm not a fan of bacon, so I omitted it from the recipe. The chowder was still delicious!
